Audio-Technica HDC114A/1.2 4.4mm Balanced A2DC Headphone Cable

The Audio-Technica HDC114A/1.2 is a 1.2-meter balanced audiophile headphone cable that connects A2DC-equipped Audio-Technica headphones to sources with a 4.4 mm Pentaconn-style balanced output. If your DAP, DAC/amp, or headphone amplifier offers a 4.4 mm balanced jack, this cable unlocks it — balanced connection support results in reduced crosstalk, with each channel driven independently for a cleaner, more precisely imaged presentation.

The input end is a 4.4 mm gold-plated 5-pole balanced plug in a convenient L-type configuration that reduces strain on portable players. At the headphone end, Audio-Technica's A2DC (Audio Designed Detachable Coaxial) plugs seat securely and resist noise. The cable's unique conductor composition is tuned specifically for Audio-Technica headphones, delivering optimal sound quality along with high noise resistance.

For listeners moving from a standard 3.5 mm connection, the HDC114A/1.2 is one of the most direct upgrades available — same headphones, quieter background, better separation.
